The Consequences of Saying No

By Nick Bautista

One man’s journey to breaking out of his shell.

A man named Jia Jiang takes a different take on life; he aims to ask for something unique every day and be rejected while doing it. He records these encounters on his blog and his goal is to “desensitize myself from the pain of rejection and overcome my fear.”

So often we are afraid to ask for things as we get paralyzed by the fear of being told no.  As Jia goes through his experiment he is realizing how to control the emotions of being rejected. Now, when he actually gets rejected it becomes freeing.

Rejection can take us down new roads filled with rich and wonderful experiences we could never see coming. Think about what you are hesitant to ask for in your life and ask for it today, if you need some inspiration just visit Jia Jiangs blog here.
